Omg, I'm so sorry that it sounded like this. This was not my intention at all, and I was merely amused that you happened to stumble across this thread, as you seem to be the Holmes fan of f!s. I thought that you were asking without recognizing the context, since, while of course I did not surmise that you weren't aware of Bell's existence and his connection to SH (such a notion would be ridiculous), I automatically assume that just about every person I encounter is unaware of the existence of Murder Rooms. Which is no crime even for a Holmesian, really. It's certainly not a masterpiece of the century (although I do think that it was rather well done), and knowing/not knowing it does not indicate anything.

Yes, you're quite right. I personally think that he had mixed feelings on the matter - on the one hand, he was flattered (and humbly said that it was probably Doyle himself who contributed the most to Holmes' personality), on the other hand, he was displeased with how inhumane and cold Holmes was. Besides, after the general public learnt about him, there was an influx of journalists nosing out the details of the matter, and it must've bothered him (although he did communicate with them, so it probably wasn't that bad).

Wasn't referencing Murder Rooms, btw, but the books.

And naturally it can be argued whether he was the or a model. There was Littlejohn, after all, and Doyle himself, and Doyle's imagination must've contributed plenty of non-existent traits to the character. If anything, they were complete opposites in every sense, save and except for the Method and some appearance features.
